First Impressions (Moved from General Discussion, Originally Called "Brain Scoop")

Didn't see a post about this anywhere yet so hey! Is anyone else as excited as i am about this new channel? I LOVE Emily! she is so cool and charismatic in an awesome geeky way i could just listen to her for hours!

I simply love Brain Scoop. Maybe it's because it's not entirely educational, as SciShow or Crash Course. It is more of the "let us show you this cool profession", and it's basically following Emily at work to get the footage and discovering brand new things. At least for me. I've never been much into biology/zoology, so it's smth completely new to me and it's awesome.

@eda1102 yh i like how informal it is in comparison to scishow and crashcourse (don't get me wrong i love them too, but they can be a bit heavy sometimes) Brain Scop is is just fun and quirky and Emily's one-liners and Michael's editing just complete the show xD

So! How about that wolf skinning huh? It was pretty intense... i feel like the hardest part to watch for me was near the end when they got to the face especially the eyes and mouth.

Emily's calm, relaxed and jokey take on the situation really helped to make it not as disturbing as i thought it would be. Though I'm sure things would have gone very differently if I had been watching that in person.

How did you guys find the video experience?

At first I thought I couldn't watch it but, I made it through. There was a surprising lack of blood which made the video easier to watch. Also how did the fleas survive for so long?
